Various improvements/fixes for the mm kselftests:
- Patch 1-3 extend support for more build configurations: out-of-tree
$KDIR, cross-compilation, etc.
- Patch 4-6 fix issues related to faulting in pages, introducing a new
helper for that purpose.
- Patch 7 fixes the value returned by pagemap_ioctl (PASS was always
returned, which explains why the issue fixed in patch 6 went
unnoticed).
- Patch 8 improves the exit code of pfnmap.
Net results:
- 1 test no longer fails (patch 6)
- 3 tests are no longer skipped (patch 4)
- More accurate return values for whole suites (patch 7, 8)
- Extra tests are more likely to be built (patch 1-3)
